They learn that the Architects constructed the Convergence Engine to merge surviving realities during a dimensional collapse, although its activation would erase every existing timeline. Medusa has used the Sentinel Artifacts and corruption spread throughout their journey to weaken the prison of the World Maw, a primordial entity sealed beneath the Eclipse Citadel. After defeating the Devourer and entering the Citadel, Scarlett discovers that Alistair reached Abyssus years earlier but was transformed by Prima Materia into the Jailor, guardian of the Engine. The crew defeats him as Medusa shatters the black sun sealing the Maw, causing all remaining timelines to collapse toward Abyssus. Realising the creature cannot be killed, the group reverses the Convergence Engine to sever the connections between realities. Alistair briefly regains control and sacrifices himself to restrain the Maw while the surviving worlds are separated. Abyssus and the Citadel collapse, leaving the crew's fate unknown.

While navigating the unstable city, Scarlett experiences visions suggesting that Alistair is imprisoned beneath its ruins. The crew learns that the Order previously attempted to access Alexandria's buried gateway, causing a corruption event that removed the region from reality. After restoring the dimensional anchors protecting the city, they discover that Medusa is corrupting the Forgotten Gate, a seal preventing Chaos from merging with other realities. The group descends into the Sunken Necropolis and confronts the Ferryman, an ancient guide of corrupted souls who has been consumed by Prima Materia. Before dying, he reveals that Medusa intends to destroy the barriers separating all realities. Although the crew disrupts the ritual, Medusa escapes with another artifact as dimensional fractures begin spreading beyond the Chaos dimension.
